Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm as corny as Kansas in August
I'm as normal as blueberry pie
No more a smart little girl with no heart
I have found me a wonderful guy
[Verse 2]
I am in a conventional dither
With a conventional star in my eye
And you will note there's a lump in my throat
When I speak of that wonderful guy
[Verse 3]
I'm as trite and as gay as a daisy in May
A cliché coming true
I'm bromidic and bright as a moon
Happy night pourin' light on the dew
[Verse 4]
I'm as corny as Kansas in August
High as a flag on the Fourth of July
If you'll excuse an expression I use, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love with a wonderful guy
[Verse 5]
No more a smart little girl with no heart
I have found me a wonderful guy
I'm as trite and as gay as a daisy in May
A cliché coming true
I'm bromidic and bright as a moon
Happy night pourin' light on the dew
[Verse 6]
I'm as corny as Kansas in August
High as a flag on the Fourth of July
If you'll excuse an expression I use, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love with a wonderful guy
